Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This How Far? lesson plan also includes:

Students explore how different textures provide varying amounts of friction to objects moving across them. They build a tool to measure the amount of friction between a note card and various surfaces by measuring the distance that a rubber band stretches. They experiment with a range of materials to determine which provides the least/most friction and predict characteristics of surfaces that might influence the amount of friction.
